Looking back to my own experience when I got involved starting with
10.3....
IRC was a new concept for me, and I tried to get it going on Pidgin.
Can't remember why it failed exactly, so I let it slide for a bit. Then
I stumbled upon xchat and installed that. After that IRC-ing was a
piece of cake.
However, I do think that in general, most users wouldn't think about
needing IRC, so perhaps it should be an add-on rather than default
install if space is needed for other things.

Hello,
We're currently in the process of trying to decide which application
that we should install/use by default for IRC.
There was a "discussion" on http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Pattern_Review
with regards to this, but I added
http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Pattern_Review/xchat for greater clarity.
Please head over the to
http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Pattern_Review/xchat and discuss your
opinions. Please note that *not* installing xchat or xchat-gnome by
default does not mean that we are dropping it from the distribution.
Thanks,
Magnus
